Congratulations to the Class of 2024. We are so proud of you! 🎓 Grad Walk 2024
Friday was such a wonderful day seeing the students in their cap and gowns and getting to celebrate their hard work. The Grads were able to parade the halls as the little Stars ⭐️ cheered them on at each turn. We took pictures with them and their families, watched them catch up with old friends and they saw some of their old teachers from their days here at SRE. Student from all over the Lowcountry returned back to SRE to do their final walk as a once before BCSD student.
There were so many laughs and smiles.. and even some tears. The pride on our staff and families faces showed through! What a special day! 💙
Congrats again to all of our rising Stars!

Last Friday our students were so excited to be welcomed to school by the Stratford High School Varsity Softball team for High-Five Friday!
It was wonderful to see Coach Ackerman and her team enjoying our students and welcoming them to school bright and early. We look forward to so many more days where their students and athletic teams show up for our students who look up to them in such big ways. Being a role model is an important goal, and these young ladies embodies that.
Our students have been collecting pop tops all year to deliver to the Ronald McDonald House to help families in need. This past month we were able to take four 5 gallon buckets of pop tops. Send in your pop tops! We hope to make another drop off by the end of the school year!
